Eli Manning and Vince Young are two quarterbacks that are labeled by the NFL community and league according to their: race, intellectual ability, and athletic abilities. Eli Manning is viewed as a high intellectual player who is capable of reading defenses in order to utilize his passing game. Vince Young is viewed as a quarterback who relies mainly on his running game, rather than strategic passing and playmaking. Interestingly enough, Young has once of the lowest aptitude test scores in the NFL, while Manning has one of the highest. Through a series of interviews with three diehard NFL fans, I have discovered that a universal title is assigned to each quarterback as a result of their race, intellectual ability, and athleticism.
